Top São José Hotel Reviews

138 Liberdade Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"very nice hotel with very good breakfast buffet clean room and well situated staff welcoming"

Locke de Santa Joana

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and good staff"

Ouro Rossio Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic location. Easy walk to many sites and close to a tram stop. Our room was quiet and clean . The front desk staff was quite helpful with a map and directions . We would stay at this property again"

Olympia Lis Baixa Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing stay at the Olympia. João (I think that was his name) and Tomás were very helpful in getting us checked in quickly and showing us how to operate everything in our rooms. (I travelled with 2 friends). The room was spacious and quiet (no. 311); bed very comfortable with crisp linens. VERY clean and I loved the Delta espresso maker. Tap water is fine to drink in Lisbon, but the hotel also brings filtered water in a glass decanter each day. This hotel was in a perfect location on a quiet street off the main drag. The biggest and most awesome surprise was how great the food was. Both breakfast AND dinner... and the cocktails and wine. I thought this hotel was a great stay for the price. We will definitely return! (PS--both heat and air con in the rooms and motorized black out shades... plus good water pressure and hot water!)"

Pestana Lisboa Vintage City Center Suites

8/10 Good

"The Pestana was perfect for my two night stay in Lisbon. It's located just outside of the busy streets, so it's quiet but easy to get into the city and the metro is just a 5 min walk away. The staff were helpful and friendly. And the room was very clean and comfortable. I would stay here again."
